Me vs. School

I've finally realized it takes someone who is very motivated to make it through college, well to make it through with flying colors and also have a good time. You need to establish certain times to study and you need to always always follow through. You need to learn how to say no when someone asks you to come out when you know you have a ton of homework. procrastination is your arch enemy and will ruin your grades! I am far from being on top of my game. It is so hard to sit in my room and study...I've got the tv and the facebook and AIM and Itunes all going...you have to be so motivated to get started. But i think that once you make a habit and start reaping the benefits of studying ie good grades and less stress...then everything in your life will fall into place...
Some ways to keep on track:
  • make to-do lists (a little girly, i know)
  • keep a planner/calender to keep track of important dates
  • have a routine
  • set aside blocks of time for studying
  • PLAN AHEAD!
  • DONT PROCRASTINATE

My essay is progressing really well. I think I appreciate my teacher even more than I did before. I need to add some more vivid details to paint a better picture of her, but other then that it is pretty good. I was looking in at what is coming up on the syllabus and im pretty excited to do the restaurant review! It is something that I've never done before!
